Neil Lennon

I think there's bluffing going on somewhere mate. He probably had a good idea he'd get it if we won, if he didn't already know for definite.

He has been looking at player's for next season scouting and had a hand in player's getting offered new deals..

I'm guessing he's had some kinda talks, knows a rough budget with Kennedy who would've been here regardless, the vision etc..

 

At least there's continuity now..

Get our transfer business done early now

 

Yep,
Scum * think 55 is on the way and things are falling apart for us(crazy i know).

Regardless of peoples opinions its time for us to put our differences aside and back lenny and hope the board do.

 

This 100%, see this scrambling about in the final few days of the window get that tae *. The defence is the major priority imo.

 

This is a must. Too often in the past we've taken far too long to do anything. This year its more important than ever due to the number of positions that need strengthening, which itself is a result of neglect in the market in the last year or two.

 

That's exactly it..

I've said my piece plenty but it's time to really get behind him now..

As JC says above. There's no uncertainty anymore, there's continuity. Player's will 100% be coming in early in my opinion..

Hopefully special time's..

 

Was saying that to ma da during the game, high balls he needs to be better , but when he does control them and turns he is lethal, I'd like to see him and griff start

 

I'm not saying aye or no about your post cause I don't know the intracices of Rodgers deployments. I don't understand formations well but Eddy is a different class from Sincy, a player full of confidence who is formidable but he's an out an out winger, Eddy loves to float about the whole three lines of the 18 yard box so he can see all routes to goal and it's so obvious he is full of class, if we handle him right I believe he could be world class, his finishing is too assured to be ignored.

Have to admire that signing because for us £9m is a massive gamble. Mind you how on earth did no one else notice Victor and Virgil even after they heard we were scouting them?

Larsson and Lubo still the best ever that went under the radar who played the Celtic Way. Larsson played in a World Cup before Wim signed him, went on to score two increcible headers in a Eufa Cup Final and create two assists as a 30 minute sub in a CL final Barca were losing I'll never get tired of remembering how amazing he is and how even when it sounds a long lost dream we still manage to find attacking players who love football.

 

Now initial disappointment has passed a bit, happy for Neil but still not the right man for me, but got to get behind him. Needs massive backing from the board, and if that’s not happening, this board need chased.

 

I just noticed he said McGuire is happy, obviously knows nothing about Celtic

 

That’s my main worry...

Of course everybody will have to accept Lenny as the manager and get behind him and his squad (whatever that will look like) but success won’t come without the Board doing the necessary.

As pointed out already.... offering him the job in the showers hardly points at an appointment based on careful negotiations about player budget etc.

Can’t remember ever hearing about a managerial job OFFER being announced either - anywhere ! It usually just rumours and radio-silence until an actual appointment is announced. Quite strange.

I hope I’m wrong but wouldn’t be surprised if our biggest piece of business this summer is a player sale and we are still scratching around at the end of the window taking last minute loans. The last 3/4 windows don’t exactly provide optimism.

It’s incredible what we’ve just done and credit to everyone responsible.. but the next 2 seasons are critical... and I think that’s where so many Celtic minds are already. There is no room for second chances or for botched transfer opportunities.

Such mixed emotions this morning!

 

Another dafty..

Yous two would get on like a house on fire

 

The guy shouldnt have taken the job, bottom line. I cant recall one good performance we have had under him.

The board is a * disgrace, how to ruin a wonderful day. This is a guy who couldn't won a treble with no competition, hes a complete fud as a manager.

 

You grass I was standing up for you too on his house on fire

 

Naw. He's no.

 

Got to love all the different angles folk are flying in at, 'Can't believe Lenny took the job cause he's * and should know the board are worse than him.' So many veils dropping!

 

How? i love him to bits a as player but his record is bad. Hibs got shot of him and his time at Bolton was dreadful. We paper crack his record due to one run in Europe and a couple of fluke results. Domestically he struggled and thats a fact

 

He's just won us the Treble.

Away lie down in a dark room and calm yourself ya roaster.

 

Well said , onwards and upwards.

 

Struggled to a treble you mean fud ?

And "we" aren't papering over anything.
